Archiving Pages

Please note that when archiving pages on Bulbapedia, you should move your current talk page to the new page instead of copying and pasting it. This preserves the history of the talk page. Just letting you know so you understand why I edited your talk page. Thanks for reading. --Pokemaster97 21:22, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

I will keep that in mind for the future. Thanks, Pokemaster. In truth, I was used to just cutting and pasting because of how often I do that through Wikia sites. If that's what's preferred, I'll just stick to that (much easier method, as well). Schiffy (Speak to me|What I've done) 21:29, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

Userspace limits

Hi. I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. Please don't do it any more, though. Bulbapedia's Userspace policy restricts the amount you can edit your userpage: no more than three edits per day and make sure you contribute to our mainspace more than your userspace. This policy was instated to promote people helping out in the mainspace, and also to control strain on our server. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so help us out by contributing to some articles before coming back to your personal userpage. The more often you edit in the mainspace, the more you will be allowed to edit your userpage. Thanks! --Cinday123(Talk) 23:23, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Hold on!

If you did not read your last warning, then please read it now. You have edited the User: namespace too much. In the past, no one was allowed to edit their userpages because some users were over-editing their own userpages. Your personal editing privileges can be taken away, so please do not edit your page any more for now. Instead, how about helping contribute to some of Bulbapedia's many articles? Thank you. --Cinday123(Talk) 22:43, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Okay, first of all, once again, please do not continue messaging me with warnings as if you are staff. If staff steps in and says there is a problem, then fine. Second of all, the first time you messaged me, as I said before, was a maintenance error that I was trying to fix and inadvertently caused multiple edits with, and as I said, I had attempted to see if Werndae could do anything (unsuccessfully, but that makes no difference). Has you actually taken the time to look at the edits, or even the edit summaries, you'd realize that it was a MediaWiki issue involving the Pages where template include size is exceeded category, once which is not easily fixable. Now, if you don't mind, I would prefer you do not bug me with these faux warnings any more, given that you yourself have been found breaking the userspace policy by editing someone else's userpage without their permission, plus doing the same thing you are attempting to warn me about, as well as edit fluffing. You are not staff, please do not act like it. Thank you, and good day. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 22:59,1/8/2014 (UTC)

Opps, I will stop it, admins will do it if you make more than three edits, and one more thing, you're not an admin, OK, so I won't be mean to you, I'm so sorry for doing that. I will just simply ask questions. Cinday123(Talk) 23:03, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Friend Safari

In Friend Safari, my type is unknown and what if they don't know their Friend Safari's type, then don't add it, so if you add a friend and they have their own Friend Safari and contains three Pokémon, then you can add that template. Cinday123(Talk) 23:06, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

The template is still very fresh, not even sure if it's even necessary to move it since I'm letting people use it without asking if they want. Obviously, if you don't know anything about your Safari, then it's not really worth it to use it at all. If you've only unlocked two, the third will link to ???, and the third sprite will be the question mark (same for all Gen VI until we get the images, but that's irrelevant). The usage is rightfully {{User:Schiffy/User Friend Safari|type|first dex #|second|third|first name|second|third}}. It's already equipped to not break from a missing parameter.

Friend Safari

I'm responding here rather than on ArcToraphim's talk page because I don't want to butt in there before he gets a chance to talk, but I just wanted to let you know that the staff are already working on this. They're not ignoring it. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 16:43, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

And yet people are still responding to the older topic.... I swear once a decision is made I will be a happy man.... Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 16:45,2/5/2014 (UTC)

That really doesn't affect me much. As far as my Friend Safari tag goes, I specifically have it listed as anyone may use it without asking me first. Whether or not it ever gets moved into the Template: namespace is really trivial. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 16:40,2/11/2014 (UTC)

Hey

If you see a merge going on, please don't edit the page before it is done. It gave me an edit conflict that was rather annoying to deal with, given I was refreshing the page with the full content of the old page too. MaverickNate 23:20, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Warning Other Users

While letting another user know they've done something wrong in a polite manner when no staff is around is perfectly fine, this absolutely is not. When staff addresses an issue with another user, its between staff and that user. Please do not interject like that again. Thank you. CrystalTalian 05:53, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

My apologies..... It's somewhat late and I was irked with the issue myself. Sorry for overstepping my boundaries.... Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 05:55,2/20/2014 (UTC)

TPP

I saw that you reverted my changes to the tossed items in TwitchPlaysPokemon. I originally thought they were sorted in order tossed as well, however if this was true then the items would not, or at least should not, be grouped by quantity given the chronological sorting method. Rcmaehl (talk) 05:15, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

Ah, alright. Well, if you haven't already, feel free to change it back. I see what you mean there. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 06:18, 3/3/2014 (UTC)

Fox McCloud to Fox McButt? What?

So, I saw your notice to me. I honestly have no idea where that came from.

Oh god, I just realized it. I have a chrome extension that changes every instance of "Cloud" to "Butt" when a page is loaded. It must have changed that down below in the edit pane and I had no clue. I'm sorry about that.
Edit: It did it again, argh! Chaotic Flame (talk) 20:48, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Player and Chateau Trainer classes

From looking through RC a week or so ago, I noticed that it apparently became common for the player character to be left out (or removed from) of the "notable members" list on the Chateau classes. If anything, a more formal decision should probably be made. But until then, either all of the articles should list Calem and Serena, or none of them should. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 03:18, 4/3/2014 (UTC)

Shoot first and ask questions later, is it? If you don't know the reason, IMO the smart course would have been to bring it up with the person(s) who started that sort of edit and ask if they missed the other articles and/or what their reason was (knowing the reason, maybe then you could have decided they were right). I don't support making edits from a place of ignorance... I suppose I'll try to sort it with the one staff member who briefly contributed to the "trend", then. Tiddlywinks (talk) 03:40, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Yeah.... I suppose you have a point there. I just wasn't really sure if it was worth it with something so small, though. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 03:41, 4/3/2014 (UTC)

How I Became a Pokémon Card

Huh, odd. For some reason that chapter was not showing up in the category I was going through. Looks like the title_ja section had something that was read as something other than whitespace (probably a whitespace character written using a non-English keyboard, like what I'm using for the titles), so it wasn't placed in the category (at least that's my guess). Anyway, thanks for letting me know. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (TalkContribs) 15:46, 4/15/2014 (UTC)
